Re: ATBG and Broadband over Power Line (BPL) services. Careful here, the BPL systems currently deployed are subject to interference from other communications services even at very low power levels, and when the BPL system interferes with other radio services, it will be subject to shutdown. Attempts to remediate interference problems have not been successful in any of multiple test systems. Finally the cost of deploying BPL is 10X greater than alternative over the air services. Promoting BPL as the way to bring broadband service into every home is a deliberate and misguided distortion by the the power companies, FCC, and Bush.
